FPT signs AI contract worth tens of millions of USD with world-leading materials group; project could reduce costs by up to 40% over three years

FPT has signed a contract worth tens of millions of USD with a world-leading materials producer, marking a new milestone in its strategy to expand AI services in the European market. The agreement positions FPT as a strategic AI technology partner supporting long-term modernization programs and large-scale AI transformations.

Contract scope and platform deployment

Under the deal, FPT will deploy applications and services on the FleziPT AI platform developed by the Group to enhance operational efficiency for its partner. The AI transformation is expected to help the materials producer reduce costs by up to 40% over three years, while improving the reliability of services and supporting modernization of the core technology stack.

From enterprise AI to agentic AI

The FleziPT platform is also intended to serve as a foundation for the materials producer to accelerate AI deployment across the enterprise, with a target of moving toward an Agentic AI model—described as self-governing AI systems that can autonomously operate, decide, and optimize efficiency in real time.

How FPT delivers in Europe

FPT’s AI-first deployment approach combines on-site resources with resources from neighboring markets (Best-shore), alongside AI-augmented engineers. The company says this model enables it to support European enterprises implementing complex transformation programs with faster speed, higher efficiency, and measurable impact.

Mr. Tran Van Dung, FPT EU Regional Director, said that as AI moves from testing to enterprise-wide deployment, applying AI will play a key role in maintaining long-term competitive capability, particularly for European manufacturing companies.

FPT’s European footprint and prior use cases

Europe is one of FPT’s key markets. FPT entered the region in 2008 and currently serves more than 150 corporate clients, including companies in the energy and industrial sectors.

On the FleziPT platform and through exclusive AI solutions, FPT has supported energy and industrial players such as Pertamina (Indonesia) in applying AI to enhance operational capabilities, improve device performance, and help ensure worker safety in drilling platform systems.

Platform capabilities and performance targets

The FleziPT platform combines large-scale data processing with high-performance AI infrastructure. FPT says this helps enterprises shorten development time by up to 60% and move AI from isolated pilot models to enterprise-wide AI models. The platform is continuously updated and improved through deployments to adapt to evolving customer and market needs.

Broader market context

As the autonomous AI market grows, global AI spending is also increasing. According to Gartner, global AI spending reached about $1.757 trillion in 2025, up more than 50% from 2024. Gartner projects spending will rise to $2.525 trillion in 2026 and $3.335 trillion in 2027.
